Eyeball Licking Is The New Second Base In Japan

First base is kissing. Sloppy first is kissing with tongue. And after saliva has been sufficiently swapped, the standard is to get started with the boob touching. At least, that’s what I thought. Leave it up to the Japanese to come up with a new, more bizarre second base that is equal parts repulsive and unhygienic. Eyeball licking, also known as worming or oculolinctus, is just what it sounds looks like. One person tongues the other’s eyeball. (FYI, I am squirming in my seat as I type this.)

One teen says of the getting wormed: “My boyfriend started licking my eyeballs years ago and I just loved it. I’m not with him anymore, but I still like to ask guys to lick my eyeballs. I just love it because it turns me on, like sucking on my toes.”

Um, but sucking on toes is also gross. As you might have guessed, all this oculolinctus has led to a pink eye epidemic amongst Japanese teens. Dr David Granet warns: “Nothing good can come of this. There are ridges on the tongue that can cause a corneal abrasion.And if a person hasn’t washed out their mouth, they might put acid from citrus products or spices into the eye.”

Kids, please go back to feeling each other up for God’s sake. Or wearing diapers, which I think is also a thing in Japan. I don’t even care. Eyeball licking is beyond gross. [The SunUK]
